In particular, they read our global capitalism visually and discursively by examining the way capital entices us into debt and domination via advertising. Although a traditional book, this is also a map into the interior space/time of global structures that appear to us as flickering images interrupting our televisual downtime. They demonstrate that there is no downtime, no uncolonized space. Ben Agger, University of Texas at Arlington

st1\:{behavior:url(#ieooui) } / Style Definitions / Goldman and Papson do for Marxist cultural studies what Einstein did for physics: they rethink the space/time of capital. In particular, they read our global capitalism visually and discursively by examining the way capital entices us into debt and domination via advertising. Although a traditional book, this is also a map into the interior space/time of global structures that appear to us as flickering images interrupting our televisual downtime. They demonstrate that there is no downtime, no uncolonized space. Ben Agger, University of Texas at Arlington This luminous book is a gift for everyone trying to survive the terrible anti-utopia of the planetary and intergenerational Ponzi scheme of looting, mayhem, and dispossessed losers that is 21st-century capitalism. Goldman and Papson offer an inviting and accessible GPS for navigating this dangerous terrain that draws on a rich trove of images (the ads are cool!). In rigorous and compassionate analyses they brilliantly show how Capital itself has become branded to explain, as well as any book out there, the mental and material ecosystem that engendered the 2008 financial crash.
